John Adams Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 6 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: He didn't withhold the funding before the call -- it was being earmarked and in process. He didn't bring up funding, the Ukrainian president did. Are you sure you read it? President Zelenskyy: Well yes, to tell you the truth, we are trying to work hard because we wanted to drain the Swamp here in our country. We brought in many many new people. Not the old politicians, not the typical politicians, because we want to have a new format and a new type of government. You are a great teacher for us and in that. The President: Well it's very nice of you to say that. I will say that we do a lot for Ukraine. We spend a lot of effort and a lot of time. Much more than the European countries are doing and they should be helping you more than they are. Germany does almost nothing for you. All they do is talk and I think it's something that you should really ask them about. When I was speaking to Angela Merkel she talks Ukraine, but she doesn't do anything. A lot of the European countries are the same way so I think it's something you want to look at but the United States has been very very good to Ukraine. I wouldn't say that it's reciprocal necessarily because things are happening that are not good but the United States has been very very good to Ukraine. Quick question DR: How many times have your posts today been picked up by journalists? Is your Q rating up? Pulling for you guy.

Tiberius Posted September 25, 2019 Author Posted September 25, 2019 2 minutes ago, whatdrought said: Yes. Quote The document released Wednesday, in keeping with White House practice, is a memorandum of a telephone conversation and is not a verbatim account. A cautionary note on the memo of the call warns that the text reflects the notes and memories of officials in the Situation Room and that a number of factors “can affect the accuracy of the record.” So you just take the WH at its word? That's a yes. The most dishonest WH ever? I mean that's your primary source? Come on. This is the same WH that seriously released a doctored video, lied about Mueller report and lied thousands of times. You actually believe Trump, sigh

John Adams Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 2 minutes ago, DC Tom said: But the whistleblower themselves, reporting a phone conversation they didn't even hear, that's not hearsay. And I think Tiberius is arguing that because it's not a recording, it's not a transcript. Lots of idiocy. We know what was said on the call. I don't question that. More to come but if it's not a lot more, the Dems got way out over their skis. Trump acted like a 3rd world despot but mostly because he's an idiot. And he probably did what he usually does, went to the line (we give you guys lots of love!) knowing he could go over if he just chose the wrong word, and made sure not to. Unless there's more to come, this is not a nothing-burger (Russian collusion was a nothing-burger...obstruction was less so), but it's not an impeachment-burger either.

You are using Orwellian logic. The secondary source, the whistle blower was based upon what individual was told about the call. Now we have the actual call transcript. To think what a secondary source's report based upon what he/she was allegedly told is more credible that they actuate transcript is blatantly idiotic. 1 1

Because it's Joe Biden who's the most ***** here. By miles and miles. And he'll bring down a lot of people with him. His corruption in the Ukraine wasn't a one off -- it was one stop of many on his collection route. Bye, Joe! Hello landslide in 2020 for Trump. Jesus Christ. You're absolutely nuts. Get on the right side of history. 4

I want to live in a country that is a true republic, not the illusion of one. You're supporting corrupt officials who tried to steal the 2016 election, lied about it for three years, and profited from it. And you backed a side which is about to lose big. 2

I love that you don't think this in any way relates to money, from the president of the United States. What the &*%^ else would he be talking about, bringing quartered oranges to Baron's next soccer game in Kiev? Trump: Well it's very nice of you to say that. I will say that we do a lot for Ukraine. We spend a lot of effort and a lot of time. Much more than the European countries are doing and they should be helping you more than they are. Germany does almost nothing for you. .. the United States has been very very good to Ukraine. I wouldn't say that it's reciprocal necessarily because things are happening that are not good but the United States has been very very good to Ukraine. Just let it slide for your own good. Trump brought up money first, and I corrected you. It's not impeachable that he did, but you can bet that funding was on Zelensky's mind. Edited September 25, 2019 by John Adams

You actually believe Trump, sigh So here's the thing Tibs. You're a pretty lost cause, but I'll explain my reasoning on this and let you take it for what it is.. The transcript is the only primary source- thus it is, at this time, the only evidence in this whole twisted case. The transcript disproves major portions of the WB's original testimony/statement/accusations. This is where we stand. In order for something to change, one of two things will have to happen: 1- Another primary source would need to be released proving the first primary source wrong, or at least adding additional information to the whole situation. 2- Some evidence would need to be discovered indicating that the primary source is doctored/invalid/a lie. Unfortunately for your presuppositions, saying "Trump is corrupt" isn't proof that the primary source is incorrect. It's an opinion that you hold, and others disagree with.Without evidence, it's just you proving to all of us for the millionth time that you care more about your identity as a resistance fighter, than you do about the verifiable, provable truth. If you can prove that the transcript is incorrect/doctored/a lie, please show that information here.
